Went to work at Wal-Mart after the power being out all night at my house. Had to set my cell phone alarm clock feature to wake up, anyways get to Wal-Mart, and they're power was out. They had us clean up damage from the storm, power came back on around 10:30 am, so I was enlisted to help unload the truck from the night before since power went out around 7 pm, Friday night. After lunch, I built a bike and a grill, then it was time to come home. Listened via radio to the Cubs win they're third straight walk off game. Came home, and had a little private time with my wife, ran to the grocery store, had a snack then bedtime.

I cut my own hair. Then I met with a friend from high school who was up with his family for his class reunion. We went to lunch with our high school coach and his wife. Then I came back home and watched the USATF National Track & Field Meet.

Former Fan Club president Dan Madsen sold some of his collection today in Denver so I went to check it out. It wasn't as much stuff as I had assumed it would be but I still got those old deluxe Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon figures for $2 each, so that's pretty good. I then had to work an eight hour shift at the grocery store's fuel center, which was my first shift after having three days off.

I had a pretty eventful Saturday. We crossed the equator therefore we had our line crossing ceremony. Seeing as I did it back in 2007 I got to "initiate" the slimy wogs. It's just a fun day where you go from station to station and the shellbacks (people that have done it already) talk mad sh*t to you and whatnot. It ended up on the flight deck where everyone got soaked with seawater.
